Special Local Regulation; Lower East River & New York Harbor 4th of July Fireworks, Manhattan, NY

Краткое содержание

The Coast Guard is proposes establishing a special local regulation on the navigable waters of the lower East River and New York Harbor, NY, for vessel management for the annual 4th of July fireworks display. This special local regulation allows the Coast Guard to control vessel movement and prohibit all vessel traffic from entering the fireworks barge buffer zone, and establish four separate viewing areas. This rule is necessary to provide for the safety of life on the navigable waters immediately before, during, and after a fireworks display that involves multiple barge launch sites on a highly congested waterway. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.
